You’re in an ocean swimming along in the piss when all of the sudden you look down, and you see a student, floating toward you. You reach down, you tax the student 5p for a plastic bag and then implement a massive rise in tuition fees. The student floats on their back, their belly baking in the hot sun, taking an unpaid internship to try and get experience so they can start paying off their tuition debts, but they can’t, not without your help. But you’re not helping. Why is that?
:swoon: I cannot allow this good post to be lost in time, like tears in rain.

Also I got carried away listening to music on me big headphones and did an insomnia. I did however discover the only good thing to come out of the DCCU, which is Hans Zimmer's Score for the Nolan Batman films, in particular 'Why Do We Fall' from Dark Knight Rises, because it makes me feel sad, and then by the end like I want to do all of the pushups and go for a run (just probably not at 3am).

Yeah we've delayed it to Jan 31st, and now we're doing a General Election, the outcome of which could radically change what's going on.

everyone everywhere thanks the bus driver, in scotland you go that extra mile and give him a handy too which is why buses are always late.

And why the bus accidentally goes that extra mile.

Angepain posted:

torn by the new edinburgh buses with the separate doors for leaving, slightly more efficient but also makes it difficult to thank the driver without shouting across the length of the bus, and it just doesn't do to make a scene now does it, what would society think

I moved from London to Edinburgh 4 years ago, so I kept accidentally trying to leave buses through a nonexistent second doorway. Then when I'd got used to that the new buses with their second doorways confused me :D

Also at first the whole thanking the bus driver thing was a surprise to me. I was used to the social mores of London i.e. be a harrumphing oval office ;)

I've lurked UKMT for nigh on six or seven years, but I emigrated in 2017 so I've felt sort of cut off from British politics, which is awful because a Corbyn Labour party is the only time I've really felt I've had somebody representing me.

quote:

Traders preparing for a Halloween shock in currency markets after the last Brexit deadline placed bets worth billions of pounds in options, most of which expired worthless on Friday.

Sterling is holding its ground above $1.29 after the European Union gave the U.K. another three-month extension to the previous Oct. 31 exit date. That left many options maturing Friday out of the money, including a notional value of over 10 billion pounds ($13 billion) that the currency would slump below $1.28 or climb above $1.30.

Alright, since I don't want to carry the phobic label, I too will post. I follow this thread for news and analysis as I lived in Ireland back in the day and really don't want it to be shat on as a Brexit byproduct. I am a Belgian living in Flanders, but soon will be off to Norway. I am just making full use of freedom of movement, you see.

The podcast is excellent. I have shared it with a fair bit of colleagues. I think 1/3 of EFTA here in Brussels have listened to an episode at this point. Please continue the fine work.

Hey thread, do we have any evidence/material regarding Swinson / the lib dems being poo poo on the NHS?
Not Swinson-specific but the Lib Dems overwhelmingly supported the Health & Social Care Act 2012 (which paved the way for privatisation & did not fall within the coalition agreement, they just love privatisation), and the Orange Book contains a chapter on why privatising the NHS is actually good. Also lmao they loving gutted social care, never ceases to amaze me that people even need telling they're poo poo on health.
